15 Unique Event Venues in Miami

If you're hosting a business event in Miami, your attendees will undoubtedly be tempted to skip the business meeting and head straight to the beach. If you want to appeal to your attendees, you'll need to find a way to incorporate a little bit of the South Beach vibe into your event—and the best way to do that will be with your venue.

Finding a venue that meets your needs in terms of budget, location, and timeline—not to mention atmosphere and ambience—is not easy. If you're hosting a B2B event, it can be especially difficult to find a venue that's professional without being bland, and one that meets all of your logisitcal requirements but still lets you think outside of the box.

Hosting an event requires a lot of moving pieces to come together, and finding the right venue is a key piece of the puzzle. Sometimes, however, finding that event space can be a long process, especially if you're trying to find something that's doesn't fit into the B2B venue stereotype. If you're hosting an event in Miami, whether it's a small-scale dinner or an industry conference, we've got a list of 15 unique venues to help get your search started—keep reading to learn more.

Small-scale events: VIP dinner or lunch

If you're hosting a microevent or a one-off VIP dinner, finding a high-quality and unique restaurant will go a long way toward impressing your prospects and clients. If your dinner party will include more than 10 people, you may want to consider renting out a private dining room at one of these restaurants—an option that many of them offer.

Small- to medium-sized eventsWhile a small-scale business dinner will require you to find high-quality restaurant, of which Miami has plenty, finding a venue for an event with 50-100 attendees might prove to be more difficult. If you're hosting a roadshow event, for example, you'll want the venue to have space for a networking and happy hour, as well as space for an educational keynote presentation and/or panel of industry experts.

Events of this nature can touch prospects at all stages of the buyer's journey—from new leads who are just learning about your business, all the way to current customers who might be looking to renew their contract. In any case, you'll want to impress your attendees, influence pipeline, and avoid hosting an event that blends into every other B2B networking hour your guests have attended.

Several of the following venues offer options that will accomodate a wide range of events—click through to their websites for more specific information.

Medium-sized to large eventsIf you're putting together something like an industry conference, whether it's a one-day event with 300 people or a multi-day event with thousands of attendees, the following venue options can accommodate a variety of needs. If you don't need the maximum amount of space a venue offers, for example, you'll likely be able to rent just a portion of the space—so you can meet your needs without blowing your budget.
